Remote Viewing the Dark Side of the Moon - Part I
PSI
the 23rd letter in the Greek alphabet and the first letter in the Greek word psyche , meaning of the mind and soul, is also a term which is prevalent in the realm of parapsychology.
PSI comes in various forms; extra-sensory perception (ESP), clairvoyance, precognition and astral-projection. International intelligence agencies such as the CIA, KGB and MI6 have researched, experimented with and employed elements of PSI for decades for nearly half a century.
Psychic Spies
Author @neilstrauss recently blessed Steemit with an article on Remote Viewing stating that it was the only piece of his to be rejected by his editors. Based on personal interviews with physicist and former CIA operative Russell Targ, we're given a glimpse into the secret world of psychic espionage and warfare.

Upon meeting, Targ encourages Strauss to test out his own psychic powers by attempting to guess an object in his pocket. To Strauss' astonishment he does just that, describing the abnormal object to a 'T'. Targ explains that there’s ‘no secret’ – rather psychic ability is something that we all possess.
Anyone can do it. They just need to know how.
Many compare remote Viewing to playing guitar: with proper teaching, just about any human being with hands can learn to play a few songs. But only someone born with a natural talent and aptitude for the instrument can become a master musician like Paco de Lucia or Jimi Hendrix.
While the article is superbly written and a hugely entertaining piece exploring Russell Targ's involvement in CIA research into PSI phenomena, there's much more to tell about the origins of Remote Viewing and psychic warfare.
The following article focuses on another gifted psychic and Remote Viewer, Ingo Swann, often referred to as the 'grandfather of remote viewing'. He participated in the earliest known psychic experiments conducted at the Stanford Research Institute alongside Targ.

Declassified
In 2008, CIA documents related to Remote Viewing and Project Stargate were declassified and made public. Together with several other CIA releases in conjunction with the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), these documents are a fascinating collection of real life psychic experimentation and achievement.

Remote Viewing
In order to define Remote Viewing, it’s perhaps best to differentiate the practice from other PSI phenomenon. According to the United States Air Force,
Psychic research includes such phenomena as telepathy (mind-to-mind communication), precognition (knowledge of future events), dowsing (clairvoyant ability to find water, minerals and so on, by means beyond known sensory or perceptual faculties),
remote viewing or out-of-body experiences (seeing locations, objects or events shielded from ordinary perception is a spatial location separate from one’s physical body)
and psychokinesis (movement of matter by mental means without using any known physical forces).

Remote Viewers, people who have the ability to travel to distant locations in their minds, began testing their skills in experiments conducted in Stanford Research Institute (SRI) in the early 1970s. The earliest recorded experiments conducted by the CIA involved Russell Targ, Harold Puthoff, Ingo Swann, Pat Price and Harold Sherman at the SRI.

Remote Viewing Jupiter
!WARNING PDF! - NSA/CIA declassified documentation - PDF - !PDF WARNING!
This document, released in 2008, highlights Remote Viewing (RV) experiments with Ingo Swann and Harold Sherman.
In this 1972 experiment, the Remote Viewers (psychics) Ingo Swann and Harold Sherman were tasked with Remote Viewing the planet Jupiter. At this point in human history, Jupiter had yet to be visited by NASA’s Pioneer 10 satellite and information about the gas giant was significantly limited.
Launched on March 2nd, 1972, Pioneer 10 was well on its way to making its historic fly-by of Jupiter sometime in late 1973. Sister Satellite Pioneer 11 probe would reach Jupiter in the spring of 1974.
This meant Jupiter was an ideal location to experiment with Remote Viewing because details regarding the composition of the gas giant would only be known the following year when NASA would receive raw data from Pioneer's transmissions. Therefore, any foreknowledge by Sherman or Swann was impossible.
The CIA describes the experiment as a way:
“to carry forward the possible verity of the psychic nature of men”
The Sherman Swann Psychic Probing of The Planet Jupiter
The Remote Viewing of Jupiter occurred in 1972 at the SRI was funded by the Central Intelligence Agency. The project was led by Dr. Harold Puthoff. Sherman and Swann conducted separate but simultaneous viewings from different cities and had no contact with one another during the process.

Recap Descriptions of Jupiter by Sherman and Swann
- yellow, orange and red coloration
- gas, gaseous atmosphere
- thick atmosphere,
- storms / tornados,
- high winds
- cold temperatures,
- water / liquid
- ice / crystals
- planetary rings
In the years and decades that followed the experiment, many of the observations made by Swann and Sherman proved to be extremely accurate.
Here’s how Ingo Swann described the comparison of the RVed observations to NASA’s raw data drawn in subsequent decades from multiple NASA missions including Pioneer and Voyager. The comparisons appear in his 1998 book Penetration.
Raw data factors and confirmation dates
- Existence of a hydrogen mantle – 1973 & 1975
- Storms/Wind (dimensions and unexpected intensities) – 1976
- Something like a tornado (strong rotating cyclones) – 1976
- High Infrared reading – 1974
- Temperature Inversion – 1974
- Cloud color and configuration – 1979
- Dominant orange color – 1979
- Water/Ice crystals in atmosphere – 1975
- Crystal bands reflect radio probes – 1975
- Magnetic and electromagnetic auroras (‘rainbows’) – 1975
- Planetary RING inside the atmosphere – 1979
- Liquid composition (liquid hydrogen) – 1973 & 1976
- Near invisible RING surrounding the planet (Galileo Orbiter)– 1988-1994
Remote Viewing showed that the planet Jupiter had faint rings like those of its neighbor Saturn. Astronomers scoffed at this claim; Carl Sagan called it “ridiculous.” Nine years later, Voyager 1 sent back pictures of the Jovian rings.
Our Current Knowledge of Jupiter
Structure
- Composed of mostly hydrogen and helium
- Deep in the atmosphere, pressure and temps increase, compressing hydrogen into liquid
- Jupiter has largest ocean in the solar system – an ocean of hydrogen
- Unclear if Jupiter has a solid core or a dense, extremely hot soup
Surface
- Jupiter doesn’t have an actual surface
- The planet is swirling gases and liquids
Atmosphere
- Multiple colorful cloud layers
- Likely has 3 skies (cloud layers)
- Upper layer is probably made of ammonia ice
- Middle layer is likely ammonium hydrosulfide crystals
- The lower layer may be made of water ice and vapor.
- The varicolored atmosphere may be the result of rising plumes of sulfur and phosphorus rising from the warmer interiors of the planet.
- Planet’s fast rotation (10hrs) generates powerful jet streams
- Prevailing winds reach speeds of 540km/hr
- With an absence of a solid surface to slow the winds, storms rage for years.
- Great Red Spot has been observed from Earth for over 300yrs.

The accuracy of the RV observations is nothing short of remarkable.
At their closest, Jupiter and Earth are over 600 million kilometers apart.
Swann and Sherman were able to describe in great detail characteristics of the gas planet not yet known to science. Observations that were initially ridiculed had turned out to be of uncanny precision.
Secret Soviet Bases
The results from the Jupiter RV helped to convince the CIA that psychic phenomenon was an area that required further investigation. Moreover, the alphabet agencies were extremely concerned that their Soviet counterparts were already light years ahead in PSI research. These sentiments are only partially true, however. Though the Soviets had indeed been exploring the world of parapsychology taking a more open minded approach to possible PSI applications in the real world, the Cold War paranoia of the time period certainly contributed to an exaggerated fear of Russian Psi capabilities.
As a result, the CIA began investing more time, money and resources into PSI research. As Russell Targ explains;
We had more scientific acceptance at that time because we had more money. The CIA spent $25 million on us. We had a lot of respectability, but by and large the public didn’t know what was going on.
Despite the varied results by American government agencies, some experiments were proving to be very promising. Remote Viewing and psychic espionage, in particular, often produced encouraging results.
From 1972-1974, another gifted RVer by the name of Pat Price was also impressing his CIA supervisors. CIA documents disclose that Price was able to provide an elaborate description of a clandestine Soviet installation located in the Ural mountains. The amount of detail included in Price's viewing was astounding.
Meanwhile, while sometimes being wildly off target Ingo Swann continued to impress with his ability to locate ‘instruments’ behind double steel walls. In yet another experiment, Swann disclosed the whereabouts of a previously unknown Soviet base describing the nature of the personnel and rail lines coming to and from the area. The existence of the base was later verified by US spy satellites.

Psychic Weaponry
In addition to the advances in psychic espionage,
a growing awareness of PSI viability came into focus.
According to the 1988 USAF report a new realization was taking
hold among certain factions of the US military of:
‘the tremendous potential threat of psychotronics as an instrument of power.’
Both the CIA and KGB were keen to explored a wide variety
of possibilities related to the weaponization of PSI.
Inevitably as _remote viewing expanded into the realm of espionage other,
more deadly, research involving psychic experimentation were also in development.
In a 63-page report by Lieutenant Colonel Donald M. McKelvy
for the United States Air Force (USAF), the author states:
The mind is rich in unfathomed resources ripe for exploration, a limitless source of treasures for advancing all mankind, and a serious threat to those who ignore its potential.
PSI offers an almost endless array of possibilities for military applications.
- Intelligence
- Espionage
- Personnel
- Communications
- Electronic Equipment
- Weapons (electro-magnetic, psychotronics)
Harnessing psychic powers to attack the human body was a focus of an unspecified number of research projects with varying degrees of success. Certain gifted participants were capable of inflicting serious harm with psychokinesis. Small animals were used in certain experiments where the cardiovascular systems were psychically targeted.

It's unclear if any similar trials involving human subjects as targets of psychic attacks were ever administered.
Nevertheless, CIA document goes into significant detail on the possible uses of PSI and psychic warfare.
Here's a passage outlining some of the possible avenues for future research, applications for psychic weapons and the possible dangers connected to their development.
.png)
There’s a lot of food for thought here and while much of it still seems like science fiction or something out of the X-men, the achievements described above should not be overlooked.
You’ll remember Russell Targ’s statement that the ability resides in all of us.
The implications are frightening but just like MAD (mutually assured destruction) if we were all endowed with such powers then there maybe no need for conventional weapons.
More importantly, is the question of how could these powers be used for the benefit of humankind for; enlightenment, knowledge, empowerment, consciousness, empathy, compassion, ascension, healing and peace?
Overlooking PSI Research
Throughout the USAF report, there are references to an anti-PSI ‘mind’set’ that permeates western society. Notably, the established scientific community’s derision of research in this field prevents serious enquiry and consequently limits progress and funding for such projects.
This passage may shed some light as to why serious scientific studies are shunned in the West.
.png)
This would suggest that those in the military and intelligence industrial complex prefer technological solutions in the physical world where financial profits are guaranteed. The integration of PSI/parapsychology research and applications threaten to cut into industry profits and are therefore deemed unfavorable.
Remote Viewing the Dark Side of the Moon
In part II, we'll explore the claims of Ingo Swann who says he collaborated with an unnamed shadow agency of the US government in a super-secret experiment - Remote Viewing the Dark Side of the Moon. These claims come from Swann himself in his book Penetration and are not supported by CIA or any other official documentation from the US government.

Epic post dude.
I’ve been fascinated with remote viewing for a long time now since reading Psychic Warrior by David Moorhouse in the late 90’s.
It’s interesting to see the subject is going partially mainstream now with a lot of mentions on YT and in certain programmes on History/Discovery type shows.
The concept seems relatively simple under the right circumstances and I’m sure those with the ability to meditate would be great candidates for viewers. I’ve never been able to empty my mind so find it a difficult concept to grasp but I’m convinced those who can and do have been put to work in Psy-op programmes to great effect by many governmental and private agencies for many decades.
It’s a can of worms when you think about it deeply as theoretically nothing can be held secret from those who have the ability to go anywhere and anywhen!
Nice work bringing the subject to Steemit V, as ever a thought provoking post, especially for those hearing about it for the first time.
Resteemed of course 👊😎
Excellent post @v4vapid upvoted and resteemed. If we think of it from the perspective that the universe (including ourselves) are a play upon vibration and energy. Then throw some fringe science into the mix .. by zooming past cellular life, past the atom and into the quantum realm where we would start to see that every structure in the entire universe is connected. Within this realm you will see that every particle in the universe has self organised into one huge interconnected intelligent whole. The whole is itself an amalgamation of interconnected single systems “all in one”. Much like a unified field, but in effect a unified field of consciousness and intelligence. Indeed we are not just a drop in the infinite sea, we are the sea and so our consciousness would appear to exist outside of the mind but is equally anchored by the physicality of the brain. The ability to remote view is (I believe) valid which kind of suggests that our psi abilities are not impeded by said physicality but by our perception of the possible. I equally believe our governments came to fear the inherant ability, power that lays dormant within our psyche. Indeed imagine what a world of remote viewers would be like for them! :D Another post my friend.
I have a friend who practice remote viewing. She once remote viewed Mars and with others members or her RV group saw group of alien creatures. She described them as classical grays as we call them.
To me the most important question is what this say about who we are and what is nature of reality. Funnily enough, even this phenomena is real, every remote viewer will say to you that they don't know really how this phenomena works.
Just recently I was commenting on someone post here on Steemit about phenomena in RV when at some period of day results can be less accurate. Because I couldn't remember exactly why is that, I send message to one of top RV I came across. Here is his response:
Keep up with great articles!
Totally awesome! This is my kind of deal!
Back in the day when I was reading psychic guide books and the like, I did come across a few stories and examples of how to practice remote viewing and felt (still do) that the concept is related to 'out of body experiences'.
I'm a bit rusty on it (I had no-one but bulletin-boards that would conversate with me on half I read), but I do think the two are tied, along with the ability to tap into the cosmic consciousness. And I do think it's possible for us all to do, we've just forgotten / brainwashed / threatened and it's a skill that has faded.
This is one of the likely reasons why, especially in modern times. In the past, such weird folk probably got drowned or stoned :/
These 6/7/8th sense skills surely have a use to us, in providing better health and conditions for now and the future. Such a shame they've been oppressed so much.
Awesome subject!
I've been wanted to blog about being spoken to by the 'cosmic consciousness' but have not done so out of fear that I could not possibly explain it to display the clarity of the event, but perhaps I'll try sometime soon.
Cheers!
Hey! This topic fascinates me to no end and to read military and CIA reports on the abilities of gifted individuals adds even more intrigue. I think all of us experience some forms of PSI / ESP in our everyday lives but we brush them off or decide not to talk about them for fear of ridicule. But, we all experience deja-vu, and in my opinion this is also an indication of tapping into the collective unconscious.
I'd like to add some of my own experiences here as well, from meeting friends in lucid dreams, traveling vast distances in dreamscapes, precognition, my experiences with haunted houses, ghosts and dead relatives.
You're right, it's quite difficult to write about as many of these experiences are so very difficult to articulate.
I hope you give it a go though, I'd be quite interested to learn about your experiences.
Cheers, mate :)
I love how deja-vu is described in The Matrix.
These dreams you describe are recent or from childhood? They sound familiar to ones I had as a child - i'd look forward to bedtime to continue where I'd left off, and meeting friends, or flying (taking off from my bedroom window and using breast-stroke obviously?!) across lands and oceans were very popular.
I'll have a think about my stand-out tale, my descriptive writing isn't the best and so it'll be a tough one for me.
Could perhaps be a v4vapid contest of the future though? :)
I'd love to read about your personal experience!
haha dammit! I'll have to now... but it's about girls n stuff, argghhh :P
Cool cool, I love some vulnerability... <3
its on my list then :)
Get ready to roll out the tumbleweed gif as the comments section is empty!
I have always believed in telekineses, telepathy, and even teleportation.
I have also believed all that which you named but I didn't know what exactly do we call them.
Thanks for informing me the names of precognition, dowsing and remote viewing.
I do believe that every person holds all these powers, it's just that they just need to know how to use them !!
It's insane how they killed a rat and frog just by their psychic powers, may be that is why god didn't give us the complete ability to unleash these powers. Not everyone will use it the correct way and for the right purpose.
Though I would have appreciated a lot more if Russel also told how to actually unveil and use our hidden powers :P.
But Why did you give a warning for those PDFs.
I really want to open them but wanted to ask before that why did you give a warning?
Are they safe to open?
I love such stuff which you write. I myself have a deep interest in psychology and philosophy. That is what I write about most of the time on my blog.
I loved your blog. We need some evidence time to time to understand our true potentials, thanks for reminding of it. Keep up the good work :)
You know, there's a manual on remote viewing, I was going to add the link in this post but it was getting too long already. I'll probably include it in part 2 but here it is anyways ;)
This is the archived link, you can find the PDF quite easily with a basic search.
CIA Controlled Remote Viewing Manual

I'd love to try it out sometimes myself, Enjoy!!
That's fantastic :D :D I am so excited to check it out. Thank you so much :*
Looking forward to part two. Our minds are capable of so much more than we use them for. A power lies sleeping, for most all of our lives, waiting to be harnessed. Great read. well put together. Thank you for sharing.
Much appreciated, thanks for reading. I totally agree with you that we're capable of much more and there's a dormant power inside of each and every one of us. I believe that this awareness has been lost or hidden from us... I hope one day we can reconnect with this power.
Kind of links to something I posted the other day. Becoming our best versions of ourselves. We are gods that have yet to reach our full potential. True knowledge and power is often hidden from us, by the powers that be. For they know that knowledge is power. Where would they be if all had the power that they did? Equals is what it would make them. Unable to manipulate, control, dominate and reap the monetary and earthly possessions that they gain from our mental slavery.
Awesome article and look forward to part B. According to legendary folklore, Pythagoras was able to travel through galaxies with his mind. The same legends and Ideas permeate throughout eastern spirituality over a vast amount of time. The Star Wars movies and the Jedi are based on and inspired by these legends. Apparently, these abilities were a lot more common in the distant past. Humans also had a much higher awareness of their own aura and surroundings, which have since been supressed and forgotten.
Yes, this is absolutely true. In one of the CIA documents I read, it mentioned King Croesus of Lydia being one of the first instances of a military application for remote viewing in 550 BC. He enlisted the assistance of oracles, first testing their clairvoyant abilities, and selecting a true seer to help increase his intelligence program against his Persian enemies.
I agree that humankind has forgotten some sacred knowledge and awareness of our true potential.
Thanks for the great comment :)
Once again, killin it with this deep research my friend. I am sure that these things still go on today, yet everyone always likes to act like it was relegated to one experiment at one time in history.
It is synchronistic that you bring up this topic too. Just the other night I was listening to an old terance mckenna lecture where he was sayng that the establishment ramped up the atheist materialist movement right after all those experiments they did with remote viewing and other PSI research....he thinks its because they tapped into crazy shit with remote viewing and they didnt want hippies remote viewing into the CIA control rooms or fort knox or something.
Of course, that is to be taking with a grain of salt, mckenna liked to go on crazy ramblings and some people say he was a fed. I was personally a big fan regardless.
Wow that's interesting it's been a while since I turned on some McKenna. I do think that the controllers like to start their little experiments like introducing LSD and other psychedelics into the population for the purposes of control but inadvertently the hippie movement that sprang forth was the exact opposite of what they were going for.
I wasn't aware that hippies were into remote viewing but it makes sense, they're already experimenting with psychedelics and the likes.
Interesting point about ramping up atheist/materialist movement, like as if they needed to slam the brakes on the free love hippies, it's definitely a 180 degree turn around.
Thanks for the great comments, very cool.
Yeah, my thoughts are very similar on what happened with the psychedelic movement. On the most recent TCH Greg Carlwood summed it up really good by saying that as soon as the establishments psychedelic exeperiments got out of their control they cracked down on it hardcore.
Terance was a very early influence for me, I got into activism through throwing raves, and his influence taught me it was possible to be an intellectual while still looking and acting like a freak lol
I hadnt listened to his stuff in close to 8 years though, and have been returning recently because anarchy is old hat now..it is crazy to hear him describe some technological stuff that has happened. In one lecture he was basically describing 3d printers.
I would have loved to hear him talk about crypto lol
@v4vapid I love this post! I'm currently training my subconscious so I can tap into remote viewing! I was surprised you didn't include Joseph McMoneagle - he was the first remote viewer for the CIA's project stargate. He's got a ton of great content on youtube :) Kudos for putting this post up! It is awesome stuff more people should start thinking on <3
I'm going to drop this little nugget here from the mindszai. This article is very similarly linked to the fantastic work of @perceptualflaws. In fact, I think all of us here are intimately connected at the quantum level and we are the ones collaborating together, sharing our individual information and experiences that we have gathered throughout our lives. All of us are here looking for answers and by tying our threads together, we are forging our own weapon for truth and light, for we are fighting a spiritual war here and it is crucial that we continue to unveil and combine our light and let that light shine into the darkness.
Nicola Tesla called this hidden force the ether or aether. "Either" is the same...It could be God, The Father, The Creator, Yahweh, an all encompassing electromagnetic force of light and sound vibrational waves...
It is also referred to a the unified field, holos, supernatural realm, Christ Consciousness, Source Field, the Infinite, Akashic records, and many more. Who really knows? I sure don't.
I do know that there are those that are tapping into this energy for dark purposes, they are using it for nefarious reasons, to wage war against humanity.
Silent Weapons for Quiet Wars, The Report from Iron Mountain, Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion, who cares who wrote it?
I will not get sucked into a dualistic debate with anyone over whether it is disinformation propaganda or "leaked" by a whistleblower as a warning. None of that matters, what matters is that all the things written about are coming to pass. The same thing with the Holy Bible. All of these written sources are a similacrum, or a copy without an original.
We are either part of a Divine plan or we are writing/manufacturing this reality into existence.
There was a man by the name of Dr. Cleve Backster who conducted experiments into the source to see how things are all ultimately connected. Dr. Backster produced experiments in the fields of hypnosis, remote viewing, and astral projection using plants and people. He concluded that everything in nature is always communicating with everything else.
Check out Truthstream Media's video on YouTube called "The Rice Experiment."
It is the hidden one. There is so much that is invisible to our physical eyes or unheard by human ears, and yet we can see the effects all around us. We need to unlock this Force and put it to work healing the planet and humanity.
